MINNEAPOLIS — Democratic Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz and GOP nominee Scott Jensen have framed themselves as political polar opposites who agree on few, if any, issues.
But they once overlapped on some insulin, marijuana and gun policies, particularly back when Jensen was an unpredictable state senator willing to break ranks with his party.
They applauded each other in April 2020 as Walz signed a low-cost emergency insulin program into law. Jensen, a Chaska physician, sponsored the insulin affordability bill in the Senate, and DFL Rep. Mike Howard carried it in the House.
